PV solar cell on 62mtere wing, Average flying speed 70 km/h, maximum altitude 8,500 m, weight 1,600 kg and take-off speed 35 km/h        

according to BusinessWeek Peru's government has signed contracts with companies that are expected to invest $1 billion in wind, solar and hydroelectric energy projects. President Alan Garcia oversaw the signing of contracts Monday with 26 companies that are to build three windmill parks, four solar power plants and 17 small hydroelectric plants. A government statement says the businesses have agreed to build the plants and start generating electricity "with the guarantee of prices that make their investments profitable." The contracts were signed by Juan Coronado of the company Energia Eolica, which represents the 26 companies. He says the clean energy projects will be finished in two years and will produce 412 megawatts

A bright future shines on the solar photovoltaic electricity market The global solar photovoltaic electricity (PV) market counted an additional increase in installed capacity of about 6.4 GW in 2009, reaching a total capacity of over 20 GW world-wide. This has been the most important annual capacity increase ever and is particularly impressive in light of the difficult financial and economical circumstances during the past year. In 2010, global cumulative installed PV capacity is expected to grow by at least 40%, while the annual growth is expected to increase by more than 15%. During 2009, Germany remained the largest market, with Italy ranking second and Japan and the U.S. markets to follow. Germany most probably will remain the largest market in 2010, while new markets in particular from Southern Europe, Asia and the U.S. will grow significantly. Gathered together in Rome on the occasion of the 5th Workshop on Market Potential and Production Capacity on 19 March 2010, the Membe...

On March 29, 2010, Sharp Corporation started operations at its new thin-film solar cell plant in GREEN FRONT SAKAI, Sakai City, Osaka Prefecture, Japan. This plant will produce thin-film solar cells using large-size glass substrates measuring 1,000 x 1,400  mm. Thin-film solar cells have a structure in which thin layers of silicon are accumulated onto a glass substrate, enabling a dramatic reduction in the amount of silicon used, to approximately one hundredth the amount used in crystalline solar cells. The production processes are simpler, thereby lowering production costs. For this reason, the demand for thin-film solar cells, especially for use in large scale photovoltaic power generation, has been steady from all over the world. The thin-film solar cell plant in Sakai will serve as a model plant for future Sharp thin-film solar cell plants around the world. Sharp will continue to accumulate and enhance its proprietary production technology and its know-how, to meet the world’...

this is solar power ship " Hybrid Car Carrier using Natural Energy "  now has developing by  SANYO with Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. (Mitsui O.S.K. Lines) and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (Mitsubishi Heavy Industries). Sanyo has  started to undertake full-fledged expansion of its energy solution business to bring about a dramatic reduction of CO 2 emissions and running cost to various facilities, such as factories, schools, and stores, through offering the Smart Energy Systems (SES) which combine technologies for Energy Creation (photovoltaic system), Energy Storage (rechargeable battery), and Energy Saving (commercial equipment, etc.).   As part of this initiative, SANYO is promoting a system, incorporating a photovoltaic system and lithium-ion battery system, to help marine vessels reduce CO 2  emissions (Ship SES).   In 2005 and 2008, SANYO Electric supplied Mitsui O.S.K. Lines with photovoltaic systems as verification test units fo...

GCL-Poly has announced 2009 financial results and detailed a major effort to diversify operations and move downstream into wafer and solar project development and GCL-Poly have complete new Polysilicon factory 15,000MT reached  total capacity 18,000MT/year  and will be expand 21,000MT by Dec. 2010    this is no 1 capacity of Polysilicon producers in China GCL-Poly expect wafer sales to contribute a majority of our revenues starting in 2010 who have started constructing in-house wafer and ingot manufacturing facilities and we target to ramp up wafer production capacity to 2 GW by end of 2010 with a production volume of 1.3 GW in 2010 Revenue from the sale of polysilicon and wafers amounted to RMB 2,537.1 million (US$371.6 million) and and RMB 262.3 million (US$38.4 million respectively) Results Highlights:  Revenue increased by 23.7% to RMB4,355.6 million in 2009 from RMB3,521.4 million in 2008  Results affected by exceptional expense items inc...
